Eatin' planets, fightin', and drinkin' 'round the world!
Jumping in late on the Australia - Netherlands game love. Was heartbreaking, not because we embarassed ourselves but because we COULD HAVE WON IT!? Never expected that before the tournament. Very, very good signs for the Asian Cup and the 2018 WC qualifying campaign.

We're on the right track and we still have a chance to take some pride and a point or 3 back against Spain. Bring it on!

Swedish style? No.
Yugoslavian style? Of course not.
It has to be Zlatan-style.

Looks like Adam Taggart will be going to Fulham after the World Cup for a princely sum of =<gently caress all.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

That just kind of goes without saying though, right?

All game day threads on reddit are rubish. Also it's hard to follow since it's all upvotes and downvotes.

I liked how he kept interrupting every other commentator to just say 'great job there' or 'Tim's a great guy' or 'I know all these players on a personal level and I want to bum them' constantly

Still a breath of fresh air after AFL commentary. They feel the need to ensure someone is always talking. Less is more, guys.

We got Bayswater from WA NPL, and I'm legit mad that south Melbourne didn't get through so Victory could spank them into dust. They are the ultimate gently caress you got mine team

It would have been great to smash South Melb but I'll settle for some poo poo Western Australian team. Do we play home and away? I literally have no idea how the FFA Cup works but I'm keen for it

The teams that finished in the finals last year all have to play lower league teams away. The bottom four teams play against each other.

That's interesting, I would've thought they'd have all the A league teams play lower tier teams in week one. It's like playing the fifth to eighth seeds against each other in round one of Wimbledon.
